A two-year old child died over the weekend following a two vehicle accident in Newaygo County.

 

Deputies say it happened on Elm Avenue, at the Baseline Road intersection in Big Prairie Township Saturday afternoon. That's where a pickup truck driven by an 18-year old man and his passenger a 14-year old male both from Morley failed to stop at the stop sign and hit a car carrying five people.

 

The driver of the car, a 27-year old woman from New Era and two of her passengers a 29-year old man from Shelby and a 7-year old girl from Shelby were taken to the hospital.

 

A 5-year-old boy had to be airlifted to the hospital, and the 2-year-old died from her injuries at the scene.

 

The two teenagers in the pickup truck were not hurt.
